   sukuinuf, and soulclb3

Fixed TI PSG (sn76489 and friends) noise and square-wave period to be
maximum length when period register is set to 0. Fixed white-noise
phase/XOR issue: got rid of noise XOR/XNOR select, as all chips seem
to use XOR. [Lord Nightmare, Michael Zapf, PlgDavid]

Preliminary DIP coverage (lives/coinage/test mode) and Player 2
control fix for unclepoo. [Tafoid]

Implemented Z80-DMA interrupts. [Curt Coder]

Fixed a bug in emu/sound/disc_mth.c. This affected spiders.c fire
sound. [MASH]

matches sn94624, still need to test a real chip) Removed a piece of
useless code, and fixed a comment. [Lord Nightmare]

ui.c,ui.h,windows/input.c: [Miodrag Milanovic]

existent custom audio/video emulation [Fabio Priuli]
